Feeding difficulties in children with cerebral palsy: low‐cost caregiver training in Dhaka, Bangladesh

Abstract

In situations of poverty, compliance is restricted by lack of education, finances and time. Nonetheless, carers with minimal formal education, living in conditions of extreme poverty were able to change feeding practices after a short, low-cost training intervention, with highly positive consequences. The availability of affordable food supplementation for this population, however, requires urgent attention.
